About this study
Official title: Long-term Evaluation of Vincristine-induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Adult Survivors of a Multicenter Prospective Cohort of Childhood and Adolescent Leukemia (LEA Cohort): a Multicenter Cross-sectional Study
Vincristine is a major anticancer agent in the management of hematological malignancies. One of the main side effects is chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). CIPN is a characteristic side effect of neurotoxic anticancer drugs. CIPN associated with vincristine is typically characterized by distal and symmetrical sensory symptoms (dysesthesia and paresthesia). Motor and vegetative symptoms can also be found. The prevalence of CIPN associated with vincristine during treatment ranges from 12 to 100% in children (depending on the endpoint).
The aim of this cross-sectionnal study will be to explore the CIPN prevalence and severity in adult survivors of childhood leukemia and having been treated by vincristine.
Read the detailed description
Adult survivors of chidlhood leukemia and having been treated by vincristine will be contacted from the French childhood cancer survivor study for leukaemia (LEA Cohort) in order to seek their participation agreement.
Thereafter patients will received a self-administered questionnaire exploring the chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and related comorbidities (pain, neuropathic pain, anxiety, depression, health-related quality of life, substance use, physical activity, deprivation). Oncological and sociodemographic characteristics of participants will be recorded.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Sensitive chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (time frame: day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Dec 2025.
